A kumiko workshop for building wooden patterns using a traditional Japanese method will take place on October 8, 2026, at the Tikotin Museum of Japanese Art in Haifa. No nails or glue.
Kumiko is a traditional Japanese art in which delicate, precise wooden patterns are built from thin sticks. During the workshop, we will learn to measure and sand each stick gently and patiently until it fits perfectly with the other pieces—without nails or glue, using only clever joinery. It is both a challenge and a meditation: creating geometric shapes, focusing on the smallest details, and finally enjoying the delicate appearance of light filtering through the lines of the wood!
